slocate clamed for 'locate' and 'updatedb', but these files are from 'locate' package, not 'secure locate' package. I never used/installed 'locate' here on Xubuntu, I'd used it in a older Debian and I can't understand why 'slocate' needs files from 'locate' to update itself just with this version. I think you can't see with reinstall procedures. Pay attention to "remove diversion", because it failed in the first time with files 'locate' and 'updatedb'. So I "touched" two fake files (zero byte files) just to 'slocate' doesn't stuck during the instalation process. On the reinstall time (below) this workaround wasn't needed. $ LANG=C sudo apt-get install --reinstall slocate Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...
